Seven of its counties have || |more than 100 each. | There has been no greater tri- |bute to any figure in the the {history of American sport than | the ‘spontaneous and heart-felt | character of expressions all over {the country following Knute Rock- | ne's tragic death. Walter Camp, Percy Haughton, i Tex Rickard, Miller Huggins, Ban | Johnson all have passed on in re- cent years, leaving records of re- markable echievenment and lead- lership. Beyond these factors Rockne left the effect of his as- ,tounding personality in the hearts {of boys and girls he knew. | It is not exaggerating to say | that youths who learned their ! football or spent much of their ! college careers under Rockne's in- (fluence, now grown to maturity, | bases which tled the score but|neiq a rare affection for the gen- fus of Notre Dams. Rockne made almost everyone he met feel that his inlerest in them and what they were doing was genuine. He had the knack of being intimate while also as- serting a mass influence only through what they read or saw. Newspapermen, players, coach business associates all appreci the compelling, magnetic character of the man, his extraordinary breadth of vision, command of language, vivid imagination and grasp of essentials. Life Meant Much Life meant so much to “Rock.” In his short span he contributed to it an amazing range of activity. If, in its courhe, he was set upon a pedestal by his hero-worship- pers, it is also true, that he was qpite capable of stepping off it to aintain his personal balance and popularity. All of us like to remember “Rock” in his bantering, humorous moods. He liked to leave ‘em laughing, and it was with a smile and a warning not to bet on the | &vALAN GOULD ~ ;Seattle and Portland Open ASSOCIATED S SPORTS EDIT&. wrong horse that I last sald good- bye to him and Mrs. Rockne on the Biscayne boulevard of Miami, bound for the Hialeah track. Hard To Question At luncheon, Rockne had plied me with so many questions that I had difficulty plying the features of my own trade. What was go- ing to happen to Yale? ‘Would Adam® Walsh be the next Coach! there? How was the ban o spring practice working out at some eastern schools? Was Primo Carnera any good as a heavy- weight and could he be taught how to use his right hand? Over the radio later we talked about the 1931 Notre Dame team, the backfield places Rock need2d to fill, the chances of Miami seek- ing a counter atraction to the an- nual Rose Bowl football post- sea- son game. He wound up in such good hu- mor that he told the story of the chap who, on his first visit to No- tre Dame, discovered the porter at the station, the taxi driver, the boys on the campus all executing a shift as they did things or went places. All carried footballs too. This was natural enough, he reasoned, but as a climax, on be- ing ushered into the university offices, the president looked up at his visitor, “hepped,” shifted and then shook hands. “The funniest part of this story,” concluded Rock, “is that a lot of folks think it is true.” SAVE FRIDAY EVENING for the Boy Scouts Father and Son Dinner at Moose Hall.
